Pete is a creative culinary mastermind. His menu is never boring and the food never disappoints. It’s absolute worth waiting in line for! I was dying for his Nutella S’more Puff Pastries he put on the menu tonight, walked in and didn’t see any in his case and was disappointed. He laughed and said he was keeping them behind the counter and then he snuck an extra one in my to go box that I didn’t discover until I got home - nom nom nom!
I love having a local casual gourmet take out within walking distance of my house. The portions are usually enough for two people, making it very economical. The food is delicious and when you stand in line with others, you get to meet your neighbors. Plus the owner is a nice guy too.
High quality, reasonable prices, really really good food. Ten stars.
Seriously addicted to the Thai dipping sauce for the rotisserie chicken and the salted caramel tiramisu. Oh my. The tiramisu is like crack (or what I assume fighting the addiction of crack would be like). I eat half for dessert and the other half for breakfast and I'm always sad I don't have more. Everything we have eaten from here has been excellent. Hands down some of the best food I've ever had around the city. Pete throws down in the kitchen and is quite possibly a food God. Treat yo'self and yo' tastebuds by going to ARS.
My 1st time as a customer last week! I'm looking at the Chef as he is preparing g final touches on site for each meal that a person orders at the counter line. This Chef delivers! Everything was wonderful - what an amazing gourmet meal at a more than reasonable price!! Wow -- I'm hooked!
My friend and i are visiting New Orleans and staying at Algiers Point. We discovered this place by doing a search for restaurants. After reading the reviews, we decided to give it a try. Standing outside the tiny establishment, waiting to place our order, we occasionally got a whiff of an intoxicating aroma. Oh my goodness! We could not wait to get back to our rental place to eat. We were not disappointed. Considering the chef is a one man shop, we were very surprised how excellent the food was. The food portion size gave us enough for lunch tomorrow at a very good price. Will eat there next time we are in town.
I would be remiss not to tell you about this fabulous place in Algiers Point. One-of-a-kind meals. The chef is an absolute genius. Run dont walk to this food Mecca. Prepare yourself for greatness!

The food is simply amazing. There are not enough words to describe just how good a meal is. Do yourself the favor and just come on in, get some food and fall in love with the best lil slice of heaven in Algiers.

Pete is my personal chef ( well Appetite Repair) when I am at my home, in New Orleans! I know there are many places to eat in New Orleans but, I can't find anyone that can compare to Pete and the quality of food he cooks.
See you in July ~ Chad
Can't get enough!!! A great place to get gourmet food to go!!!
Such an awesome spot, Pete is awesome and his food is so comforting and delicious! Can't begin to describe how good it is just stop by!!
Always inventive and delicious. A unique experience that just happens to be walking distance from my house.
You just cant say enough about a chef who spent time in Western PA.!
This place is amazing. Finally swung by after my neighbor raved about the food. The menu constantly changes and I had to check the FB page to see the days menu. I ordered a few dishes and stood around talking to Chef Pete. This guy is awesome. It does take a while for the food to get cooked but if I wanted fast food, Id have gone elsewhere. This stuff is legit. Be prepared to wait and just enjoy the experience. I will forever be a repeat customer after just 1 experience here.
I can't even begin to explain how good this is. Everything the guy makes just blows my mind. I go there every Thursday, normally he opens at 5pm but in summer 6pm Thursday-Sunday but you won't really know unless you like the fbook Appetite Repair Shop Menu group. Any curry the man makes is sooo perfect - especially the lamb shank curry. Salads always have a twist. Pork is perfect. Plant-based is out of this world. He really creates great food. The deserts he makes are fan freaking tastic! Thank you for reading my review.
This was my first time eating here and I am impressed. The chicken curry was delicious and the portions are generous. I will be back :)
you could literally order anything off the menu and it will be delicious. Always gourmet, top quality meals. Schedule varies sometimes due to ingredient acquisition, best to check the FB page for offerings and timing. ("Appetite Repair Shop Menu"). Carryout only.
I feel extraordinarily blessed to have been able to eat the fine dining from this hidden gem. You will absolutely be satisfied.
Came for dessert, and I'll be back for the crab cakes. Delicious, cool, and a one man show.
One of the most memorable meals I've had in New Orleans. Everything that I tried was top notch.
Absolutely amazing! So glad I waited. The curry was bursting with flavor! And butternut squash salad, Turkey, blue cheese was superb!

Never eaten here. The owner trolled me on Instagram and left me several antagonizing comments. I hope by writing a 5 star review, more people will see this establishment , chose to spend their money with him and he can stop being so angry. Hurt people, hurt people and he is clearly in need of some love...
Great little place in Algiers Point. Pete always makes great food. Stop by and check it out, the prime rib is amazing.
The Cincinnati Trash Plate was awesome. I highly recommend this place to anyone that hasn't yet had a chance to try it out.
If you're looking for a cliche restaurant in New Orleans, skip this one. If you want a unique menu that changes daily, fantastic food cooked right in front of you, and a dedicated chef who knows the locals and welcomes the "not quite locals," follow the Facebook group and stop in for an amazing treat!
Unique foods, great tastes. Get there early as he gets busy and often sells out of some things. He has a strong following.
DELICIOUS AND INCREDIBLE. I will return to try everything I can. Take away only. Long queue (but very, very well worth it) so arrive early if waiting is an issue for you.
Wow hidden gem. Saw some other reviews mention wait times. Ordered three dishes and they were prepared/cooked while we waited 15 minutes. Would eat again!
I normally can be as picky eater. Even I know when I should just let go and trust the chef to tell me what I should eat. I've never been let down and it's some of the best food I've had in years. I would give him more than 5 stars if I could.
Showed up 3 minutes before opening. 4 people in front of me. 1 person showed up with a call in order. 40 minutes late, 2 people still in front of me. If you have an hour to stand and wait for food, this might be the place for you. Otherwise, find another option.
OK, so after waiting an hour and getting the food, I can say it was with the wait. Still 4 stars for the inconvenience. But man, the food was great.
Pete is an amazing chef. We walk to ouch up dinner multiple times per week.
Save room for dessert.
This place is, quite simply, a precious hidden gem. Go. Eat. Smash that like button. Mmmmmm
